I had Mirena removed exactly 12 weeks ago today after having it in for 7 months, and the symptoms are SLOWLY going away, although the weight is not budging, nor the bloat, despite my running 6 days a week and eating a healthy diet. I have had 4 periods in the 12 weeks since i've had it removed. All I can hope is that all I've heard is true - that it does take about 3 months for the hormones and side effects to get out of your body. Hopefully then I will start losing weight. I gained 15 lbs in 6 months and a pant size. When I went on Mirena I was back in my pre-preg jeans, but they were VERY tight...now, those same jeans will not even go up over my hips. I just keep hoping and praying i will return to normal. Do some of you still have a problem losing the weight despite having the Mirena out for a while?
